Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

VanJS: A 0.9KB JavaScript UI framework
The preact team also dislikes transpiling jsx so they've developed an alternative using tagged template literals: https://github.com/developit/htm

React SSR web-server from scratch
So getting this to work without bundler magic is very hard. It's not surprising why NextJS is investing in a bundler. Though one thing that really sticks out is how much complexity we add for just miniscule dev ergonomics. Not using JSX and using something like htm would make all this easier (removing the bundler entirely), it's a lot of overhead to avoid a couple of quotes. React should really have a tagged-template mode. Also all of this is indirection is actually bad for dev ergonomics too! One of the reasons I did this is because I'm absolutely sick of magic caches and sorting through code that's been crushed by a bundler into something I don't recognize and can't easily debug. While we can't get rid of this completely (ts/jsx) this preserves the module import graph completely on the client-side making it easy to find things as you are working and preserving line numbers. This obviously is not useful for a production build and there's a lot of work that would need to go in to support both modes over the same code, but it's depressing no tools really work like this for local development.

HTML Web Components
You can also do JSX and skip the build step with preact + htm : https://github.com/developit/htm#example

Service Worker Templating Language (SWTL)
While I was able to achieve this fairly easily, the developer experience of manually stitching strings together wasnt great. Being myself a fan of buildless libraries, such as htm and lit-html, I figured I'd try to take a stab at implementing a DSL for component-like templating in Service Workers myself, called Service Worker Templating Language (SWTL), here's what it looks like:

Gaseous - Yet Another Games Manager
I would however highly recommend https://github.com/developit/htm

Create and Hydrate HTML with HTM
I thought the same thing, but apparently "HTM" is a JSX like javascript string template representation of HTML, and it can be found here: https://github.com/developit/htm

Anyone using React from just a CDN, barbarian style?
If you're going to do a no-build approach, assume modern JS (so you don't have to transpile the JS syntax). Also, you can use https://github.com/developit/htm as a nearly-identical equivalent to JSX syntax, also without transpiling.

Simple Modern JavaScript Using JavaScript Modules and Import Maps
This seems like a case of caring way too much about something that's hardly very different. JSX versus tagged template strings can be incredibly similar to one another.
The examples in this article are using vanilla template strings to author raw html, but that only misses a couple of nicities JSX has. There are tagged template string libraries like htm[1] that do include some of the few nicities JSX has, but which are actually compatible with the official language.

A few programming language features I’d like to see
The first one exists in JavaScript and is called Tagged Template Literals. I agree with the author that its a nice feature. It's the perfect construct to use for prepared SQL statements, LINQ-style queries, or reimplementing a JSX-like syntax (see HTM https://github.com/developit/htm).
-
Using React without JSX == no build
There is however a library that is closer to JSX (HTML-like feel) but yet does not require a build step. htm. HTM uses tagged templates to leverage template literal as native Javascript template strings. If you have not played with tagged templates, I encourage you to check this out, it's a quite powerful feature, that has recently become a part of Javascript.

Immer VS mutative - a user suggested alternative

Show HN: Cami.js – A No Build, Web Component Based Reactive Framework
```
It looks like it’s mutating, but both the reducers and update() uses immer* under the hood, so we still respect immutability under the hood.
Cami supports redux devtools so you can use that for time-travel debugging too!

Making Sense of React Server Components
I heard that immutability libraries like immer.js [0] help with this. Anyone go this way and had good success? Is this 'the way'?

How We Fixed Performance With JS Object Variable Mutation
So, that's what we built, and we built it in the most obvious way — using JavaScript Proxy objects to track mutations and reflect those changes across Appsmith’s framework. Initially things looked good — it worked, aside from a few hacks to make some data types work with map and set, and we were following the example of other projects that had similar requirements. If it was good enough for them, it should be good enough for us, right?

The sword refers to immer, the faster and stronger immutable data js tool limu stable version released!
But is immer really the ultimate answer? The performance problem of immer is more prominent in large arrays and deep-level object scenarios. See this issue description, many authors in the community began to try to make breakthroughs, and noticed that structura and mutative, I found that it is indeed many times faster than immer as they said, but it still fails to solve the problem of both fast speed and good development experience. I will analyze the two issues in detail below.

Ramda: A practical functional library for JavaScript programmers
I like immer for this kind of thing: https://github.com/immerjs/immer
It gives you immutable updates without getting bogged down in FP abstractions.

Why my variable is being mutated if I make any changes to my data ?
I've always been a huge fan of immer for these case. For your code, it would simply turn into setGridData((prev) => produce(prev, draft => applyChanges(changes, draft)) but I recommend you go over their documentation to fully understand how it works

Is there a better way to do read-only types
If you're trying to make things actually immutable, Object.freeze and deep copies can clutter things up pretty good, have you considered using something like immer? (https://immerjs.github.io/immer/)

5 React Libraries to Level Up your Projects in 2023
If you want to set up from Context, Zustand is your best bet. It offers an extremely simple API that lets you create a store with values and functions. Then, you can access that store from anywhere in your application to read and write values. Reactivity included! If you want to store nested object data in your store, consider using Immer alongside Zustand to easily change nested state.
